Johnnie Taylor - Toe Hold lyrics

rate me

All my life I been a po' boy,<br />

It's been hard to get a dime<br />

Everythin' I got, umm, hmm<br />

I had to pay for it on time, but that's all right<br />

<br />

Long as I got a toehold<br />

As long as I got a piece of you<br />

As long as I got a toehold,<br />

I can make it through.<br />

<br />

Now listen<br />

I said I went to my doctor,<br />

First thing he talked about is malnutrition<br />

I'm not tryin' to be a fatman,<br />

I've got to look after my ambition.<br />

<br />

Long as I got a toehold<br />

Long as I got a piece of you<br />

Long as I got a toehold,<br />

I can make it through.<br />

<br />

Oh, now give it to me baby<br />

A little little little little little little little little little toehold<br />

A little little little little little little little little little toehold<br />

Oh!<br />

<br />

So, baby!, if you're with me,<br />

I'll let the whole world be against me.<br />

I don't expect to ever get rich,<br />

You may find me diggin' in a ditch.<br />

<br />

Long as I got a toehold<br />

Long as I got a piece of you<br />

Long as I got a toehold,<br />

I can make it through.<br />

<br />

Oh, give it to me baby<br />

A little little little little little little little little little toehold<br />

A little little little little little little little little little toehold<br />

Owwww!<br />

That's all I want baby<br />

I want a little little little little little little little little little toehold<br />

I want a little little little little little little little little little toehold<br />

Owwww!<br />
